    The document summarizes a PRDS valve that provides both pressure reduction and desuperheating in a single valve. It efficiently mixes steam with spray water in a compact design with high turndown ratios up to 40:1. It is designed for accurate pressure and temperature control applications and has options for standard or special designs to suit different needs, including pressure balanced trims for lower thrust requirements and noise reduction features. The working principle involves injecting spray water at the turbulent vena contracta region after pressure reduction, where the water spontaneously evaporates to effectively desuperheat the steam.

    PRDS Valve

    Pressure reduction and desuperheating in a single valve Efficient mixing of steam with spray water Compact High turndown ratios upto 40:1 Ease of maintenance Designed to suit almost all your applications for accurate pressure and temperature control Different Options for use Standard Arca PRDS valve with single stage pressure reduction for normal duty conditions. Special Arca PRDS valve for high pressure drops with a multi-step trim Pressure balanced trims to achieve less thrust requirements for actuator even at very high differential pressures Perforated plugs and p silencer cages to keep the noise level within acceptable limits Angle valve design on request Working Principle In the Arca combined PRDS valve, spray water is injected at the Vena contracted region immediately after the pressure reduction. This is a highly turbulent zone and since steam is at an adiabatically cooled condition, the spray water evaporates spontaneously thus effectively desuperheating the steam. Reduction of noise level due to mist formation by water is an added advantage. This is the most effective way of desuperheating since steam temperature, after pressure reduction, is not allowed to recover back.
